Breathe In, Breathe Out, Breathe In...

Okay, here's something I've learned I'm sure you all already know: moving is a bitch. I am so tired I could scream. Arg! I'm almost done though. I'm holding out on moving my computer, desk, and fan until I get my phone hooked up. I believe I'm going to stay here at night until then (I really can't live without the Internet). It's true I moved from Kentucky in 2003 to Tennessee (a little over 270 miles), but I didn't have to deal with anything. It was shortly after my dad's death (a month, to be exact) and my family took care of everything. And, it's not that I'm tired of carrying all the things... it's that I'm so overwhelmed with everything. My stomach is a mess. The doctors have told me I let stress and problems upset me so badly it screws up my insides. I'm trying my best to relax and breathe and take moments to just be calm.

My best friend in the whole wide world wrote me today. The 3-page letter let me know how she is and how everyone is doing. I'm always excited to hear from her because we grew up together and really care about each other. We'd go all around town (it was a small town in Kentucky) and just shop and goof off. It was a simple, understanding friendship. One I still treasure deeply. I miss her very much and really am looking forward to seeing her again someday soon.

Well, I'm off for tonight. I'm going to sleep late tomorrow so I can have some energy for the weekend.
